How We Advocate For You

Disability Lawyer Aline Gaba

The Social Security Administration Office in San Diego is governed by complicated rules and regulations.  To understand these rules and regulations, you need to speak the language of the SSA.  In California and across the country, the SSA denies more than half (about 65%) of all initial applications for disability benefits.

Requests for Reconsideration, the first level of appeal, are denied at an even higher rate (about 85%).  We understand how important it is to present a claim correctly from the outset, and your chances of obtaining benefits improve with the help of an experienced disability attorney.

You do not have to go it alone. Aline Gaba, an experienced Social Security disability lawyer at the San Diego Disability Law Group, can help.

Reviews from our Social Security Disability Clients

I filed for Social Security disability due to fibromyalgia. I was denied a few months later and given an opportunity to appeal. I knew I needed an experienced SSDI attorney to help me with my case. I met Aline Gaba for a consultation and she was very familiar with my condition. She was very professional and exhibited empathy towards me and my day to day struggle with this condition. She thoroughly explained the process of appealing the decision I received and requesting a hearing if the appeal is denied. My case ended up going to a hearing and due to the efficient preparation prior to the hearing, it went well and the judge ruled in my favor. I am very thankful for Aline’s help and would recommend her to anyone needing a disability attorney.

I have had the wonderful pleasure of working with Aline for a couple of years on a disability case. She was always prepared for our meetings, discussed what type of information she needed from us, and we discussed our expectations both positive and negative.

Additionally, the Judge responsible For making the decision on my case complimented Aline on her work and performance. I was and still am very impressed.

Ms. Gaba was very strong in her responses to the judge and was very prepared in her defense of me. With my 2500 pages of medical records I was very impressed how well she new me. We won!

From the first meeting you have with Aline will note her sincerity & compassion and attention to detail. She was very thorough with all aspects of the case and communicated this with excellence. Very great follow up in all her communication! I even received an email back from her on the weekend which I did not expect till Monday or Tuesday. This was really surprising!! She and her staff will take good care of you and get your case settled, if you choose her to represent you. My hats off to her for getting this matter resolved for myself and my family.
